That his fate comes true is the way in which Oedipus is a victim of the destinies in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban King Oedipus hears a horrible prophecy that he will kill his father and marry his mother. He makes the decision to do whatever he can think of to keep that fate from unfurling. But every single choice he makes, every single action that he takes just operates to make every single detail of that prophesied fate come true. Fate therefore victimizes Oedipus in never letting go of him until he indeed ends up, and becomes known by all for, killing his father and marrying his mother.
